The Best Restaurants In New Haven - New Haven - The Infatuation
"Olea is one of those restaurants where you’ll say “That was the best part of my meal” five different times. First after the complimentary, bite-sized spanish tortilla, then after you take a sip of your mezcal melon cocktail, and once more when you taste the paper-thin jamón ibérico or scallops that barely require teeth to chew. And just when you think the fine dining Spanish restaurant won’t keep its pace, the torrija comes—a french toast dessert soaked in vanilla-infused milk and served with honey-rosemary ice cream. It’s the best ending of a meal we’ve had in New Haven. Olea’s menu is a la carte, but for a special mid-week date night, try their $105 six-course tasting menu that’s only available Tuesday through Thursday." - ciera velarde
